I've created a simple template to use for animated music videos. I'm not the most savvy with after fx, so there may be an easy solution I missed, but I was wondering if there was a way to swap out my audio amplitude. I have all the effects I like pick whipped to the slider of the first project I did, and have all the minimums and maximums adjusted to my liking. To make another video with these same effects applied the same way, I imported a new audio file and created another audio amplitude layer by converting the audio to keyframes. If possible, I really don't want to have to go back and pick whip all of the effects to the new keyframes, or have to re set up the minimum and maximum values every time I use this "template" with another song. Is there any way I can just replace the old audio amplitude layer with a new one, while keeping all the effects pick whipped to the slider?

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried it and unfortunately it didn't work out . The thing is that after converting audio to keyframes, it becomes a new layer separate from the original audio file. It seems odd that I wouldn't be able to just swap that layer out with different keyframes while keeping all the same settings.

A Ha! figured it out. Turns out I just don't know what I'm doing and misunderstood what you meant. I was thinking I needed to replace the whole layer I had with the new audio amplitude layer, when I just needed to replace the keyframes of the layer I have the effects tied to with the new audio amplitude keyframes. Thanks for the help, sorry for being a newb.
